“Uprioarious.” Apartment613 (CANADA)
Celebrated for its humor and deep engagement with themes of identity and belonging, this show has won multiple awards at festivals including ‘Best of Fest’ and ‘Patrons’ Pick’. Aliya disarms audiences with her playful mischief, tackling complex topics like race, gender, and social labels with humor, sharing personal stories from her life as a nomad and debunking assumptions.
“While her ‘otherness’ is the central theme of the conversation in Where You From, From?, the heart of Kanani’s show is in forming a ‘togetherness’ with the room and her audience…ensuring the audience always has plenty to laugh at and plenty to bond over.” My Melbourne Arts (AUSTRALIA)
“Feel connected to humanity through humour.” ★★★★ Fourth Wall Media (AUSTRALIA)
